Leylandii Hedge Root Damage

I have a 10 foot leylandii hedge which took over 20 years to grow. Recently, my neighbor caused malicious damage to it at one side by digging up all the roots using a digging machine. Is there anything I can do to save this hedge from dying because of his uncivil action?
